5-HTP 50 mg 120 vcaps

Add to cart          Add to wish list   Our modern, stressful lives lower levels of the feel-good neurotransmitter serotonin. Serotonin depletion leads to food cravings, depression, sleep disturbances and other mood disorders. The pharmaceutical industry has responded to the serotonin crisis by creating a wide array of medications which seek to restore serotonin metabolism. A better approach may be to replete serotonin naturally by using its precursor, 5-hydroxytryptophan (5HTP). Supplementation with 5-HTP encourages brain serotonin levels that can lead to positive effects on emotional well-being, appetite control, and wake/sleep cycles. Suggested use: As a dietary supplement, take 1-2 capsules twice daily between meals or as directed by your health care practitioner. Contraindications: Patients on MAOIs (approved 2 weeks after discontinuation) Patients with carcinoid tumors Should not be used concurrently with medications such as: SSRIs, tricyclic antidepressants, MAOIs. Should not be used concurrently with serotonin 5-HT1 receptor agonists including naratriptan, sumatriptan, and zolmitriptan. Patients with ischemic heart disease (Hx of myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, documented silent ischemia) Patients with Hx of coronary artery spasm Uncontrolled hypertension Pregnant women and nursing mothers Keep out of the reach of children. Side effects: Due to excessive serotonin production could include: Nausea, diarrhea, loss of appetite, vomiting, difficult breathing, dilation of pupils, exaggerated reflexes, loss of muscle coordination, blurring of vision and cardiac dysrythmias. Note: Carbidopa may increase 5-HTP transport across the blood brain barrier due to decreased peripheral 5-HTP metabolism. Methyldopa inhibits conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin.
